Mojave Blues

Mojave Desert, one of the hottest and driest places on the planet, stretches from Western Arizona and Southwestern Nevada all the way to Los Angeles County. Graced with sights ranging from magnificent forests of Joshua Trees to burned out shells and parts of cars and hundreds of ghost towns, it also features some of the clearest views of night skies despite the incredible amounts of light pollution from Los Angeles, Las Vegas and surrounding towns. The film was shot and edited by Harun Mehmedinović on Canon 5DIII & 6D Cameras aided by Alpine Labs’ Michron, powered by Paul C. Buff Vagabond Mini. The startrails were created using the rotation of Earth’s axis and STARSTAX. LRTimelapse was used to process some of the shots. Music: Terry-Devine King © 2016, Harun Mehmedinovic
